Gemini Sample Tubes; Inserting Adapters; Removing Adapters - Micromeritics FlowPrep 060 Operator's Manual

Sample Preparation

Gemini Sample Tubes

Adapters are included as a standard accessory with the FlowPrep. Additional adapters may be
ordered if needed (refer to Ordering Information, page 5-1).
Sample tubes and heating station adapters may be very hot. Wear the proper gloves
and hold the sample tube by the upper part of its stem. Failure to observe these
precautions may result in severe burns.
Do not place your fingers inside the heating stations; the stations may be hot enough
to cause burns.

Inserting Adapters

Insert an adapter into the heating station before you insert the sample tube. An adapter may be
inserted into the heating station with either end in the upward position.

Removing Adapters

Adapters for the Gemini may remain in the heating station when not in use if desired.
If it is necessary to remove the adapter from the heating station, wear the proper
gloves; the heating station may still be hot. Failure to observe this precaution may
result in severe burns.
